Welcome to the new look of RELENTLESS RADIO. We've streamlined the navigation of the site in an effort to make it easier to get around. We've also cleaned up the look and feel so it loads quicker and provides you with a more aesthetically pleasing experience. This new look represents our third major overhaul of RELENTLESS RADIO since its inception in 1998. We've maintained the major departments of the website. Programming includes articles dealing with all on-air elements from features for jocks and PDs to articles addressing production, promotions and marketing. Contributors to our Programming section include Hollywood Henderson, Dave Cruise and others. Sales features articles for everyone responsible for generating station revenue. Our primary Sales contributor is Sean Luce. The Management section continues to address issues concerning leadership. Rick Davison is our key Management contributor. The department we call Commentary deals with issues that don't fit neatly into one of the other departments or that are of concern to the radio and music industry at large. Therese Romano is one of our major Commentary contributors. You can easily access any of our departments by clicking on the name of that department in the navigation bar at the top of every page. Once you get inside a department there are navigation bars and links on each page to help you get around. With our new look we've also moved to a new web hosting company that has given us more flexibility in interacting with you. In our About Us section (under Contact Information) you'll find convenient ways to make comments, suggestions, or register complaints through some simple forms. We've also simplified our methodology for compiling our Directories. There is a form for you to submit information on your station, company, or your individual information in that section. Our Industry News section also features a new submission form to make it easier for you to get news of your station or company to us. And we've added a form in our Employment section for you to get your station or company's job openings posted. We want to help you get your message out, so please take advantage of these new submission methods. In the coming weeks and months we'll continue to integrate more interactive elements to make RELENTLESS RADIO even more useful for you. And we'll continue to add new contributors to all of our departments as we seek to meet your needs while remaining true to our mission statement: To encourage radio professionals to relentlessly pursue excellence. Currently we're asking for your input on topics and authors you'd like to see in RELENTLESS RADIO. To submit your suggestions click here and fill out the form. If you'd like to be considered as a contributor be sure to mention that in your comments. UPCOMING TOPICS In the coming weeks we'll address just what it is that makes a core artist and how important core artists really are to any format. We'll be looking not so much at who are core artists, but at what defines a core artist. We'll also deal with the trend of the growing shelf life of currents, why it's a good thing, and why the labels may not agree. We hope you enjoy the new look of RELENTLESS RADIO. Please do take advantage of our new simplified submission procedures, get yourself and your station listed in our Directories, and be sure to send us your news items on a regular basis. And thank your for visiting RELENTLESS RADIO.
